Validator script to check status of all linked issues before allowing transition

[Steve Richards]

Hi,

After searching around this site and Google and refering to the Script Runner confluence page I just can't get my validator script to work and need some help.

I am trying to implement a simple validator script that will check the following for the issue being transitioned:

1) there must be at least 1 linked issue with a name of Test

2) assuming statement 1 above is true then all linked issues with a name of Test must be in a specific status

The code I have so far is:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import org.apache.log4j.Category
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.link.IssueLink;
import com.opensymphony.workflow.InvalidInputException

log = Category.getInstance("com.onresolve.jira.groovy.LinkedIssues")

testlinkType = ["Test"]

linkMgr = ComponentManager.getInstance().getIssueLinkManager()

// We are looking for the Inward Link of "Is Tested By"
for (IssueLink link in linkMgr.getInwardLinks(issue.id)) {
    if ((testlinkType.contains(link.issueLinkType.name)))
    {
        if (!link.getSourceObject().getStatusObject() == "Template") {
            invalidInputException = new InvalidInputException("Linked issue " + link.getId() + " is not in a status of Template")
        }
    }
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I figured it out - I was not using the getName() method i.e. link.getSourceObject().getStatusObject().getName())

Would you mind posting the complete script? I'm looking to check status of linked issues as well.

I would like the complete script too since I'm trying to do the exact same thing. Could you post it?

Hi All,

Sorry for such a late response!

Here is the script I created in the end.

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import org.apache.log4j.Category
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.link.IssueLink;
import com.opensymphony.workflow.InvalidInputException

log = Category.getInstance("com.onresolve.jira.groovy.LinkedIssues")
log.debug("issue key: " + issue.key)
passesCondition = true

testlinkType = ["Test"]
testlinkStatus = ["Template"]

linkMgr = ComponentManager.getInstance().getIssueLinkManager()

// Check for at least 1 inward Test issue
if (!linkMgr.getInwardLinks(issue.getId())*.issueLinkType.name.contains('Test')) {
    log.debug("no Test issue links exist")
    invalidInputException = new InvalidInputException("There must be at least 1 'is tested by' link")
    throw invalidInputException
//    return false
}

// We are looking for the Inward Link of "Is Tested By"
for (IssueLink link in linkMgr.getInwardLinks(issue.id)) {

    log.debug("linked issue type: " + link.issueLinkType.name)
    log.debug("linked issue key: " + link.getSourceObject().getKey())
    log.debug("linked issue status (name): " + link.getSourceObject().getStatusObject().getName())
    log.debug("linked issue status (id): " + link.getSourceObject().getStatusObject().getId())

    if ((testlinkType.contains(link.issueLinkType.name)))
    {
        log.debug("we have a Test issue")

// The issue needs to be in a Template status
        if (!link.getSourceObject().getStatusObject().getName().contains("Template")) {
            log.debug("issue " + link.getSourceObject().getKey() + " is not in Template state")
            invalidInputException = new InvalidInputException("Linked issue " + link.getSourceObject().getKey() + " is not in a status of Template")
            throw invalidInputException
        }
    }
}

Hi, wonder if you can help? I need a script which validates the issue type before transition to next status.

So for example on transtion to "Review & Planning" the issue type must be set to "Bug", Change Control", "GAP", "Enhancement" or "Configuration".

Thanks!
